Drive In Movie

After a series of events that ruined my plans for yesterday's Friday Adventure, we decided to go to a movie at the Redwood Drive-In! My son wanted to see Kung Fu Panda and I thought that sounded like a great idea. Besides, my husband could go with us, too.

Here are some things you should bring:
*CASH-we didn't have enough and had to go find an ATM and come back.
*Snacks- I got each person an $.88 box of candy at Wal Mart, their own can of Pringles chips and a bottled soda.
*Pillows
*Blankets
*Camp Chairs
*Some people had dinner and coolers full of snacks

Things you should know:
Children under 5: free
Children 6-9: $1
Adults 10 and up: $7
*The first movie started at 9:30.
*Arrive early- we were there 45 minutes early and that would have been just right, except we had to go find cash. We ended up back quite far by the time we got back.
*Take something for the kids to do while waiting for the movie to start. My kids brought the game Catch Phrase to play-smart kids.
*When you pull in to a spot, make sure you can see over the cars in front of you. The people next to us had their mini van, but were sitting in camp chairs. Someone came and parked in front of them and they had to pick up all their stuff and move it so they could see.
*The drive in theater on Redwood Road is a double or even triple feature. We went for Kung Fu Panda, but stayed for Indiana Jones. Luckily, my little ones fell asleep. It was fun to stay up late with the older kids.
